And I have to include this trailer.
It's not great picture quality, but I hope you can see why, from the first time I saw it, I was desperate to watch the series. In fact the next day I called up my friend and said, "Have you seen the Casanova trailer, OMG!" in a really girly way. She had seen it and was also blown away - when the series was on it was a definite water cooler date the next day, to talk about how great it was and who on earth was the lead, he was amazing. And we didn't mean Peter O'Toole.

I think most the series is on youtube, but it's in clips, so it doesn't come across as well. And at 3 hours, that's a lot of 10 minute clips. Still, my friend and I believed we'd got the whole of our annual license fee's worth in those three hours. Lovely.

Wow.

Several of the related videos from the same blog are also hysterical.

Wow! That video gives me a THRIST for some alcoholic beverages. Perhaps then I can fathom the vast evil that is permeating the color spectrum.

One of the best skits from Carol Burnett: Tim at his funniest, the rest of the cast unable to keep from laughing...then Vicki Lawrence pipes in.

Best part starts around 2 minutes in, until the end where Vicki steals the show (stealing the show from Conway on that show was a feat in itself!)

I guess you have to know the actors.
To me, none of them said anything funny, certainly not funny enough to justify their own corpsing or the audience reaction. I know the same could be said if I posted a random clip of The League of Gentlemen live though.

And what does Vicki Lawrence say at the end? "Do you hear that little asshole's do?" I watched twice and couldn't work it out, let alone understand why the two guts fell off their chairs.

(just to reiterate, not an attack on the humour - I just don't get it)

"Asshole" caught them off guard AND it was in total character.

All the incarnations of The Carol Burnett Show were awesome. I'm wondering, though, if this was from her show, or was it actually Mama's Family, the show that was spun off from that recurring sketch?
